Steve–
Oh, I’d love to have a dog! If it wasn’t for the fact that we have Petey The Bird, I’d buy one tomorrow…I’d like a medium-sized dog–one that I could hold if I wanted to, but yeah, didn’t have to worry too much about stepping on it…
I LOVE this dog! Scroll down to the second, third, fourth, and fifth pictures. That fifth picture is so CUTE!!

McFann–If you get a medium sized dog look at the “working breeds” of dogs, like say a border collie or smaller shepherd, they are very bright, engaging animals that to me make better companions than your cosmetic breeds.
Oh I hate the fillies.

Kind of mad at Torre for leaving Broxton out there.
But, he did get a grounder.
Better sweep the Dodgers, but 3/4 seems much more likely. Especially with the combo of Wags & our defense.
Go Braves!

The Dodgers have got to be the crappiest team on the face of the earth to lose when leading by 7 runs in the 8th. Like the Phillies need another boost of invincibility. I swear to God, the Braves better take at least 3 of these 4 games with the Dodgers.
